Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy said he would not comment on an ongoing federal investigation after Edward Cheatam, one of two Hudson County officials who pleaded guilty today in federal court, admitted to funneling bribes to Healy's re-election campaign.

In an e-mail statement, the mayor said: "As we have said before, this is an ongoing federal investigation and we are not going to comment any further. However, as previously stated and previously reported, any donations to my campaign account by those individuals charged in this federal investigation have been isolated for donation to charity."

Cheatam, a former Jersey City Housing Authority commissioner, and Denis Jaslow, an investigator with the Hudson County Board of Elections, were two of the 44 people arrested on July 23 by the FBI as part of a massive federal corruption investigation. Each man pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit extortion under color of official right. Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 22.
